Default Which hero of yours made the following....

comments about his business acumen? Note how the 'business' goes from 'my'
to 'our' in the space of two paragraphs!

Who said it??
*************************************
"I'm doing my part to ease unemployment. I'm hiring another writer for my
staff. Will be putting the ad on MONSTER.COM and in the Wash Post. I need
more staff because 2004 is a major election year and business booked to
date indicates we'll be drowning in work. We need to hire a production
coordinator, too. It has very little to do with the state of the economy,
other than using it as reason to defeat (snipped) candidates."

We have first-class benefits, including a top-of-the-line health insurance
plan, a non-contributory defined-benefit pension plan, a 401k, and a life
insurance policy equal to annual salary. We contribute a share of profits
to the 401k on behalf of the employee. Our
Employees pay $4.50 for generic prescriptions and $8.00 for non-generics,
but that's going up next year to $10 and $15. New employees get two weeks
vacation the first year, and that goes to three weeks the third year. In
addition, we have 12 paid holidays and we shut down from noon on Christmas
eve to the day after New Year's Day. We also provide 20 days of paid sick
leave a year. And we have an outside company administering pre-tax flexible
bennies for our employees.
Our fringe benefit package follows the trade union model, except, of
course, for the profit contributions to 401k's. Trade unions are
not-for-profit enterprises. How do these compare to the bennies at your
shop?"
